Sorry! I tried to put Luffy in too but I paced wrong. Also I appreciate everyone that reads this and have a question for you all. Do you think I should be writing more third person for Frisk or stick with doing the second person * dialogue? I'm not planning on abandoning either style but wonder which one I want to write more of. Thank you for reading!

Frisk was sitting on the edge of the ship with Usopp fishing. Usopp just caught a big fish.
"Hahaha! Look at the big fish I caught! The great Usopp strikes again!" - Usopp
Frisk was giving a round of applause. Usopp put the fish in the aquarium.
"Great! Let's see how much more we can catch!" - Usopp
"Mhm." - Frisk
Frisk and Usopp fished for longer but no more fish were being caught.
"Man, this is boring… I need to catch more big fish to tell more epic tales. How I fought an enormous fish 10 times my size." - Usopp
"Well, it's nice though, isn't it? Having this moment of peace." - Frisk
"I guess so…" - Usopp
Frisk stared at Usopp with an odd expression and started to giggle.
"What is it?" - Usopp
"Now that I think about it, you remind me of a friend of mine. His name is Papyrus." - Frisk
"Papyrus… Where have I heard that name… Ah!" - Usopp

Flashback
"D...Don't Worry! For I the great captain Usopp will overcome whatever obstacles come!" - Usopp
"...Pff…. You're funny. You remind me of Papyrus a little." - Chara
"Oh? What was Papyrus like?" - Usopp
"An idiot and a coward." - Chara
"Oof!" Said Usopp with a look like someone punched him
"...But a reliable guy that always tries to put up a facade to reassure others who believes in others just as much as he believes in himself." - Chara
"... Sounds like a good guy. Like me!" Said Usopp with a wide grin
"Heh, I guess." - Chara
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
"I remember! Chara told me about him! This was when you were resting." - Usopp
"Oh, so Chara told you about him already." - Frisk
"So is that accurate? Is he really like me?" - Usopp
"Hmm…Well I wouldn't call him an idiot or a coward" - Frisk
"Oof!" - Usopp
"He's very trusting of others he just met, which is quite different from you." - Frisk
"Argh! You don't pull your punches" - Usopp
"I don't mean it in a bad way, everyone is their own person after all. In his case, he is too trusting. Though I wouldn't change that part about him. Just like how I wouldn't change that part about you Usopp. It's good to be cautious." - Frisk
"Aww, thanks Frisk!" - Said Usopp rustles Frisk's hair and she laughs with a giggle.
"I do see similarities though, especially in wanting to be someone great." - Frisk
"But in the end, it doesn't matter whether you're the great warrior of the sea or someone screaming looking at zombies because at the end… When it comes to it. It's just as Chara said. You're a reliable guy." - Frisk
"I suppose the great captain Usopp has a new follower that he can't disappoin-!" - Usopp
The fishing rod suddenly tugged hard catching Usopp off guard.
"Wha! This is an actual big one! Help me pull this Frisk!" - Usopp
Usopp and Frisk both tugged hard and shortly after, an enormous fish that is 10 times Usopp's size came out.
"AHHHHHHHHHHH!" - Usopp
"Oh, your wish came true Usopp. That is 10 times your size." - Frisk
"Now is not the time Frisk!" - Usopp
Sanji came out from the kitchen from the commotion and quickly handled the situation and the crew had big fish to eat that day.

Frisk was on Thriller Bark under a tree reading books with Robin. It was quiet and peaceful compared to what happened a few days ago. Frisk put the book down and looked at Robin.
"What is it, Frisk?" - Robin
"Robin, Did you always want to be an archaeologist?" - Frisk
"Hmm… I grew up in an environment with lots of scholars ever since I was a baby. Being around them, I also discovered that I also wanted to be like them. Sure I've thought about doing other fields of study but I found out that I liked doing archeology the most. " - Robin
"I see…" - Frisk
Robin had a good guess on what Frisk was thinking about.
"Are you unsure on what you want to be or do in the future?" - Robin
Frisk made a surprised face.
"How did you know?" - Frisk
"It's all in your face. Besides, it's something everyone thinks through and contemplates." - Robin
"But our crew seems pretty set on what they want to be. Luffy wants to be the king of the pirates, Zoro wants to be the World's strongest swordsman, Chopper wants to be able to cure all diseases, Nami wants to make a map of the entire world, Usopp wants to become a brave warrior of the sea, Franky wants to go around the world with the ship he built, Sanji wants to find the All Blue, Brook wants to… Meet Laboon and play music?, And you want to discover the truth about the world. I feel like I'm the only one that doesn't have a concrete goal." - Frisk
Robin laughed with Frisk puffing her cheeks. It quickly deflated with Robin poking it causing Frisk to also smile.
"I didn't mean to upset you. You know that our crew is… Eccentric to say the least. But Frisk, I'm glad that you're thinking about the future. I know that you once told Luffy that you went to the sea to find what is important to you. Frisk, do you have an idea on what is important to you now?" - Robin
"I… Think so… What's important to me… is protecting those that I love. Which to start, are my old friends back where I was… and you guys." - Said Frisk in determination
Robin made a small smile.
"That's wonderful. Though Frisk, I think you're starting to understand but I must remind you. Just as you care about us. I hope you understand that we care about you just as much. We're pirates. We'll have difficult fights and we'll be injured. That's inevitable but… Know that it brings us no joy if you have to sacrifice yourself for us to be safe." - Robin
Robin made a sad expression.
"What I mean to say is… Frisk. If you have to rewind and try and try again and sacrifice yourself… It's not worth it." - Robin
"But-" - Frisk
"Frisk. You're not here with us so that you can sacrifice yourself. You're valuable to us without it." - Robin
"... Can you promise me something?" - Robin
"If you ever come to a point where you're… forced to reset. I want you to tell us… Just any of us. Because Frisk… We don't want you to burden it alone." - Robin
"I… I promise." - Frisk
Frisk pulled out her pinky finger and Robin pinky promised with Robin pulling Frisk into a hug.
"You grew up too fast already, Frisk. I wish you didn't have to. That is why I want you to think longer about what you want to be or do in the future. Your own decision." - Robin
"...It's not fair. You didn't get this opportunity like me." - Frisk
Robin pulled Frisk's cheeks. It stretched a bit.
"You silly. I already got an opportunity." - Robin
Frisk looked confused.
"It was a miracle for me to be in this crew and meet all of you guys." - Robin
"But your past-" - Frisk
"True, My past was not the best. And I did truly have dark moments. But, If all those experiences lead me to being with you guys. I can confidently say it was worth it." - Robin
"... I feel the same." - Frisk said in understanding
